When I turned 60 my wife and I found ourselves in Alaska on the dream fishing trip of a life time, and we had no idea 1) how good we had it and 2) how much we love fishing. Since then we've booked fishing guides and they tell us what to do. Now that I just turned 70 I have decided to learn to fish, and in the last week I found out the difference between spin cast and bait cast reels. I also opened a tackle box that had not been opened for 50 years. I'll be overhauling the reels I found soon. I appreciate the rundown of mistakes I need to watch out for. Although having a game plan is something I'm good at.

The cast of the century in distance maybe. We just learned, accuracy over distance, so the true casts of the century are those you land exactly where you want them, not the ones that travel 100 feet. Remember, the vast majority of fish will be caught within a couple of rod lengths of the shore.

My biggest mistake was (and sometimes still is) not setting the hook right. I’ll feel it hit and instinct says “just reel” so I reel and pull it right out of the fishes mouth. Feel for the bite! Know what the shape of your bait is and where the hook point(s) is and then set that sucker! I’d rather fight the plier monster to get a hook out than not catch the fish.

Hey Debo: For new/any anglers struggling with line coils off their spinning combos, respool your spinning reels with BRAID. You can always add mono or fluoro as a leader. Any lb or any length as needed.

@DEBOSFishing

4 жыл бұрын

I always use braid to a leader on my spinning combos. I know you can run the spool under hot water, use line conditioner, stretch it, etc. I agree, braid is the way to go!

2 things that have helped me a TON. 1) Fish every cast. Even if it isn't "the" cast you wanted, dont just crank it in as fast as you can. Fish it the way you would on your best cast, you never know what might end up taking it. 2) Change your retrieve and location before changing lures. Give it at least 15 minutes of various retrieves and casting locations before you change lures.

Great video Debo. My biggest mistake was thinking that my saltwater gear would work for freshwater fishing. So I'm out there using 65lb braid with a 40lb mono leader trying to catch 2 to 4 pound fish. Now I have become a tackle junky because I have as much, if not more, freshwater tackle/gear as I do salt water. Two years ago, I moved up to Oregon from SoCal. There is very little freshwater fishing in SoCal. Ocean fishing is king down there. When I moved up to Oregon, I didn't know much about freshwater fishing. Thanks to you, Debo's Fishing, BassGeek, Tactical Bassin, etc, I am much more well versed in freshwater fishing now. Speaking of you here in Oregon, I am trying to spread the word out here about you and your KZread videos.

I've been fishing since I was a kid, usually for panfish which I enjoy. Just in the last maybe 15 years I have started to get more serious about bass fishing. One thing I struggle with when bass fishing is trying to learn to fish all the different styles and lures too quickly. Instead of becoming proficient with a lure or style, I keep trying something new on every trip. I just realized this was a thing for me when I bought all these different plastics and I have only tried them a couple of times. I also just ordered a couple of different ned rig colors.

3/4 oz rattle trap black or blue on top and chrome in the middle. It's my fish finder. Then a 6 inch watermelon salamander Texas rig. Big white spinner bait. Willow blade and a Colorado or Indiana blade too. Put a white trailer on it. Frog fish. These lures caught me. Then I caught alot Bass with them. Your right! Way to many rubber worms lures. Shawn

Yeah, i think a lot of us do that. Thanks for watching man!

I am a 33 year old, mom of 2, and I thoroughly enjoy watching this "regular dude from Iowa! You've taught me a ton. I'm still struggling hard with my spinning reel...🤨. (I had never used one & still haven't successfully used one😅😑). Nothin' but birdsnests...😔. So, I finally broke & bought a new big girl bait caster (what I'm familiar...ish...with), and stopped stealing my kiddos' pole. Lol😉 That being said, Im sure if I had more time to put forth, I would most likely have come much farther than I have by now. *You have certainly taught me so much! Your tone of voice is pleasant. You're honest & very real about your experiences etc. You're extremely knowledgeable, which is very informative for me! I really just enjoy watching/listening to your videos. So, Good for you! And whoever edits your videos (yourself, or someone else). Seriously! You do a very good job with that! Keep it up! I'll keep watching & learning!🥰

This was a fantastic list and the real world video clips you added as examples really helped send the message!

I've caught a number of bass while trying to clean weeds of my crank bait by smaking it on the water.

As much as I love the fishing vids, I really appreciate that you take the time to do tutorial videos. Much thanks my man.

I just started learning how to fish, my biggest mistake is learning to tie knots. I should practice at home before going out and taking 30 mins to tie something different on. But I’ve also learned that it doesn’t matter how much your rod cost, I’ve been using a $20 rod and I’ve been catching trout and drum. It’s been fun 😀

I only got back into it, this past December. I go fishing 4-5 days a week! Not so much catching tho. Hit that Google Earth, lookin for water, driving out to explore...sometimes to find out water is inaccessible either due to being posted, or literally can’t physically get to it! 😲. Thank you Father God for fishing!!!

The biggest mistake I and others make is believing there are fish everywhere in the water and you just need to entice them to bite. Fact -- you need to find them 1st and understand only a small percentage of the water hold fish. Thanks for the vid Debo!

One thing that has helped me is having combos set up for different “strike zones” before I head to one of the ponds I fish. I’ll have a topwater setup (suspending jerkbait or a squarebill), something to fish cover (Texas Rig) and something for fish bottom (jig or chatterbait) that way I’m not going to have to re-tie (something we all hate) if I need to change things up. I have a backpack with a sampling of lures, in case I need to change colors, or I get hung up, but my three strike zones are covered (top, cover and bottom). Learned a lot from watching this channel, so I’m also really good at catching dinks!! (Sorry Debo) JK

could not agree more. definetly important to learn multiple knots and how to use them.

I'm definitely that guy who goes to the lake with 50 lures, lol. And accuracy needs improvement. These fisheries up here in NYCity are pretty cool because not many people are going for bass and these this definitely help. Thanks Debo.

Yo Debo, - Been feeshin a long time but I always learn something from your videos. You got your pros with logos on their shirts, there's the kids with $80,000 boats and $80,000 trucks posting all kinds of stuff, but I always take away something useful from your videos. You make me think (or rethink) about what I'm doing. Thank you for the great work!

Bro that was an AWESOME video!! Got a lot of new insights! Been angling here in South Fl keep it up!!!!

Senko style really increased my fishing skills because you can fish those so many different ways. Fast, slow, jig it, pitch n flip.

Absolutely great advice!!! Only thing I can think of that you didn't mention was dressing in blending colors. I wont wear bright colors. If I have brush or trees behind me, I wear camo shirt or hoodie. If no brush I'll go with a sky color or a gray color. Definitely stay kind of closer to the ground so not to cast a shadow or reflection. Always stick to basics. Don't complicate things. By all means...... listen to Debo!!! Great job on this one. I show it to anyone who asks me to teach them to fish

Nice man! 💪🏼 First timer here. Scoping out the spot is great advice

I just started fishing and these 6 points you've made make a lot of sense. Thanks for the info.

Not checking the weather and getting dumped on after you hike a half a mile to your spot... Also dragging too much gear around. I throw a few select baits into a little pocket size container when I'm circling a pond or lake. Lastly, ALWAYS bring your scale!

top 2 mistakes i made, 1.Fishing too fast, don't be afraid to let your lure just sit there. And 2. fishing too big, If you are not getting bites switch to the smallest lure you can. I have caught some mighty big fish on extremely small crappie lures.
